We had dinner at The Pink Cadillac again, since it changed owners. The “diner” has always been a great trip to the past, and now it is freshly painted, and refurbished.
A fellow came in and asked our hostess what she would recommend on the menu. Her reply was quick.
“An Elvis Burger, French Fries and a Milk Shake!”
I had not ordered that but maybe next time. Sounds irresistible if not deadly!
I love the Texaco gas pump and tried to photograph the gas price on the front. It isn’t clear but it was 32 cents a gallon! Sometimes I think we are headed back, back, back to the old pricing doesn’t it?
Oh look! A real jukebox on the back wall. It still works and plays a lot of Elvis tunes as well as some more modern selections.
There’s a great feeling at this little diner on the edge of Lexington, Virginia where you just can’t help smiling.
If you come here for a visit, I’ll meet you at the Pink Cadillac for an Elvis Burger, French Fries, and a Milk Shake!
Oh, I love places like this, Dor. Thanks for sharing!

Oh my gosh, this place looks divine! Wait…I should have said jeepers, creepers, this place looks peachy keen! 😉 If I make it down to your neck of the woods, it’s a date. I’m thinking on ordering the Elvis burger, but I need to know, are there bananas and peanut butter on it??

Sounds like a deal! And if you come here I will meet you at El Corral, this hole in the wall Mexican restaurant. Mexican food is always best at hole in the wall places!

It’s really a great feeling to go back in time – for just a little while – and adding an Elvis Burger makes it all the more charming (no roll of course so I would order two). 🙂

Looks like a fun place–though I don’t even want to think about how many calories are in an Elvis Burger, French Fries and a Milk Shake.

Yes, you have to come to the Pink Cadillac when you are ready to throw calorie caution to the winds. 🙂
